so I thought I would post it on its own in hopes of giving others some encouraging news:

British-provided 'one shot one kill' missiles are helping Ukrainians punch holes in Russian armor

The NLAW anti-tank missiles provided to Ukraine by the UK is proving itself in fighting around Ukraine.

British-provided NLAW anti-tank system turning the tide in Ukraine — Scrappy NLAW anti-tank missiles have the punch to eliminate Russian tanks.

The Next Generation Light Antitank Weapon (NLAW) was provided by the British before the war in January. The Ukrainians are setting up counter-attacks and ambushes in the suburbs of Kyiv on Russian armored columns using the NLAW. The NLAW system is proving its mettle.

Since the NLAWs came over before the war started, they were able to be distributed widely to soldiers, and the Ukrainians are taking the initiative to blast Russian armor.
